THIS BURMESE PYTHON IS 5.1 METERS (17 FOOT) LONG AND WEIGHS 59.8 KILOGRAMS (132 POUNDS). SOUTH FLORIDA WATER MANAGEMENT DISTRICT Python hunters have found a monster slithering around the Everglades. Snake hunter Jason Leon captured a 5.1-meter (17-foot) Burmese python in the Florida Everglades. Weighing 59.8 kilograms (132 pounds), it’s thought this female could be a record-breaker for the longest snake caught by the South Florida Water Management District’s (SFWMD) Python Elimination Program. It was found earlier this week submerged in the water of an SFWMD territory near Big Cypress National Preserve. “That snake could pretty much kill any full-grown man,” Leon told  NBC 6 Miami  local news. “If that snake was alive right now, it would probably take like three of us to be able to control that snake.” As the name suggests, Burmese pythons are native to Southeast Asia. Over the past 50 years, the balmy swamps of southern Florida have become the home of hundreds of pythons, mos...

Fox News spokeswoman Jessica Jensen acknowledged the changes in an email to Newsweek, writing, "The headline was changed and the tweet was deleted....

NASA Has Found Another Planetary System Many Planets As Our Own

Image
Thanks to a novel artificial intelligence technique in partnership with Google, NASA has discovered a planetary system that has as many planets as our own. It’s the most planets in one system we’ve ever found elsewhere. The system is called Kepler-90, a Sun-like star 2,545 light-years from Earth. We already knew about seven planets in this system, but thanks to this new technique, we’ve found an eighth. The findings are published in   The Astrophysical Journal . “The Kepler-90 star system is like a mini version of our solar system,” said Andrew Vanderburg from the University of Texas at Austin, one of the scientists behind the discovery, in a  statement . “You have small planets inside and big planets outside, but everything is scrunched in much closer.” Kepler has been looking for planets since 2009, and has found thousands so far. But there are many more hiding in its data that we aren’t able to confirm yet. Thanks to this new method, we can do better. Kepler finds plan...
